Vintage Baker Furniture Empire Style Mahogany Chest, By B. Altman 5th Avenue

Vintage and scarce, Beautiful, and beautifully made vintage piece of Baker Furniture. Designed in the Empire style and made of mahogany with the drawer fronts having dramatically figured flame veneers. The hardware is 2.75 round ring type pulls, in a satin level brass finish. The top drawer has a working lock with key.

Below this is a pull-out surface for depositing watches, jewelry or spare cash. There is a double deep sweater drawer under this, and three regular drawers below.

The drawers' sides and backs are of solid oak, and are dovetailed on all four corners. The corners of the piece are angled, with a pilaster topped with a flat brass capital, and brass base. The piece's top and base also follow this angled corner, which gives the piece an architectural feel.
